Details

To monitor transport activity on a timelier basis for topical issues relating to transport, the Department for Transport (DfT) has developed updates on the following:

Indicator Frequency of update Timing of update Date first published
Practical car driving tests Monthly Every second Wednesday 9 November 2022
Electric vehicle public charging devices available in the UK Monthly Every second Wednesday 7 December 2021
Large goods vehicle vocational testing in Great Britain Monthly Every second Wednesday 10 November 2021
Road haulier coronavirus testing in Great Britain Weekly No longer published 11 March 2021

In special circumstances, the timing of updates might change for some indicators. Where applicable, the date of the next update will be added to the “Timing of update” field.

Some of the issues will be short term in nature, and the relevant updates will cease once the issue is no longer either in operation or of relevance.

Further information

Methodology notes on the above statistics are available.

Practical car driving tests - monthly statistics on the numbers of practical car driving tests completed in Great Britain are published since November 2022.

Electric vehicle public charging devices - monthly statistics on the total number of electric vehicle charging devices available in the UK are published since December 2021.

Annual electric vehicle charging device statistics are also published by DfT.

Large goods vehicles vocational driving tests - monthly statistics on the numbers of practical Large Goods Vehicle (LGV) vocational driving tests completed in Great Britain are published since November 2021.

Road hauliers testing - weekly statistics on the number of lateral flow tests conducted on hauliers, and the positivity rate of those tests, are published since early March 2021.

As of 5 March 2022, haulier testing methodology changed, with lateral flow testing no longer being observed, and positive results being self-reported by hauliers (with all other results being assumed to be negative). As a result, data past this date will not be available to us. The final update to this dataset will be provided on 9 March 2022, containing data to 2 March 2022.
